My heater is stuck on hot...even with dial all the way to the cold. I have no clicking sound and never had. Will this unit fix heater stuck on hot? I can use airflow in any position (floor, defrost etc) but it is always blowing hot air no matter what...

Yes this part should correct your temperature issues. Before buying this replacement part take the time to remove the glove box and lower panel to check if the actuator is working or not. By changing the temperature and defrost settings you will either see the actuator move (meaning it is working) or not move (meaning it has failed).

Suggestion: my heater did the same thing and I found that the front 'dome' and inside [where the blower motor is >> you will have to take off the outer cover], had a minute layer of dust that the unit somehow sensed. I used a dust brush, clean paint brushes, and some compressed air and blew what seemed miniscule particles away... IT WORKED. [my indoor parabolic quartz heater had the same problem which led me to try this....].. GOOD LUCK

did you turn up the dial to maximum heating temp?.sometimes it gets turned down by error. IF it is all the way up...check the electric going to the heater...(that it is on) IF good..they it burned out....get a new one...

I tried to use the heater over the last Winter only to have sparks and flame shoot from it. The AC unit was not affected. Obviously, I'm not going to try and use the heater again.

Seems the latest batch have that issue... Mine is beyond return so I threw it away and bought a different heater... shame that the quality of the product went down hill as I have a unit I bought a few years back that is still running strong

We have used ours for 2 years now. So far no problem w/ the heater. We did have a problem where something got stuck and melted much of the unit. I contacted the manufacturer and they were very good about repairing my unit. I have actually had a couple of problems, the other was some board went out. Again, they were very good about replacing the board. I have not had a problem in a while, so I don't know if they would still be so good, but we do LOVE our machine!

My husband said 'no'. Heater works great. Maybe a different model could be operated that way. Judy.

you might have to play with the regulators...i noticed when i have the burners off and turn the tank on that you will hear a click and i think the pressure needs to equalize before trying to start it. it happens when i change tanks and i usually wait and then it gets hot, if i start it right away i have trouble getting a high temp. also watch the wind, i have my door face the wind and play with the dampners on the sides. i have been using mine in 10 degree weather and it is heating just fine. as far as damage i didnt experience that.

My heater never lasted through one winter season, we actually bought it in april, used it a few times. it quit working, makes a rattling noise and does not blow any heat. tried to email the company several times, but they never responded. I also called a few times but didn't get through

That problem has not occurred on my heater and I always use it on low setting. As someone else suggested, clean the pilot to get rid of dust.

If the heater isn't placed by your filter outflow, it won't heat properly. So if it's not, try that. I do always go one above recommendation though.

I have run the heater all night. Once the temperature is set it will go on and off by itself. In fact I think I have just left it only for several days at a time. You just need to make sure you clean the filter once in a while to help the air flow. Hope this helps.

Hello Jackie, to be honest it's a small margin for error with this heater. My heater still works and some times the temperature settings work. And when it does, it's because I have somehow lucked -up in getting it to work. Sorry, I'm sure this was of no great help; good luck

The fan works off of heat. The hotter it gets the faster it spins. If your heater does not get hot enough it will not spin

DittoI tried to put a heater in and found the same problem - if anyone knows how I'd appreciate info too. Thank you!

Your heater is broken. This happened to me as well. I've gone through a lot of steam cleaners, but this had the shortest life span.
